Journalist Rebecca Reid claimed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are losing the public’s interest as they don’t have any bombshells to drop about The Firm. “Unfortunately, they kind of painted themselves into a corner now that if there is no more acrimony with the royal family and there are no more stories. The only thing Meghan and Harry can get traction for, unfortunately, is discomfort and disharmony with the royal family,” she said.
Royal expert Charlotte Griffiths thinks Prince Harry and Meghan Markle need to discover who they are outside of the famous family. “What is the authentic Harry? What is the authentic Meghan? It’s the relationship with the royals, so they are in a difficult position trying to make money in an area where, like a Kardashian, you have to tell us lots of things about your life and yet they’re royal and not supposed to do that,” she said.
Charlotte Griffiths believes Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s ties to The Firm no longer make sense. “Having slammed the royal family for years now, she really wants to use the title Sussex and she wants to use Sussex royal as her branding, which she was told she wasn’t allowed to, but it feels a little bit hypocritical to rely on that royal fame to sell products and maintain notoriety,” she said.
Biographer Ingrid Sewell echoed similar thoughts, saying Prince Harry and Meghan Markle should be banned from profiting off the family. “The Sussex title was bestowed upon Harry on his marriage by Queen Elizabeth II, then they abused this title for commercial reasons,” she said.
